As a follow-on to celebrating International Mother's Day, let us strive to make 2023 the year of the Nigerian girl child

Ayo Akinfe I ask whether Nigerians ever set themselves annual national goals. Growing up as kids, we were all told to make new year resolutions. I wonder why this does not extend to national and developmental matters Are Nigerians aware of the fact that Unesco advised the country to spend 26% of her national budget on education?...

I hope the invasion of Ukraine ends all this senseless calls for the balkanisation of Nigeria as it proves that what we need if an amalgamation of African states into a powerful entity

Ayo Akinfe Do you that on July 11 1960, Ivory Coast, Dahomey, Upper Volta and Niger Republic all declared their independence from France? Sadly, they did not agree to merge and form one country That year 1960 was the one which most African nations achieved independence. If we want to be honest about it, after World War Two,...

World wars always inadvertently create one or two new industrial giants as economies emerge to mass produce the consumer goods required. I am hoping that Nigeria realises that this Russian/Ukraine spat might just be her date with destiny

Ayo Akinfe When I look at the lockdown over Covid-19, I keep seeing parallels with World War Two. During that conflict, nations had to step up the production of new industrial goods like armaments, food was scarce and rationing was introduced in many countries. The US in particular, emerged as an unprecedented industrial economy from...

Let this Russian/Ukrainian spat serve as an eye opener to all Nigerians that at some stage they too are going to have to address the matter of regional security

Ayo Akinfe As things stand, the US has military bases all over West Africa. For now that is not a problem because we are a safe dumping ground for American goods. However if Nigeria's economy grows to the point whereby we are considered a trading threat, the policy will suddenly change One other thing Nigerians are refusing to...

Do Nigerians know that India generates up to $50bn a year through business process outsourcing (BPO) and as a nation of 200m we have no option but to follow suit 

Ayo Akinfe You simply have to give it to India for leveraging on their English-speaking population and making the best out of business process outsourcing (BPO).

Malaysia has created a template for developing nations like Nigeria to learn from

  Ayo Akinfe We like to blame colonialism for all our woes but after 50 years as an independent nation, that excuse was no longer tenable. On August 31 1957, Malaya gained independence from Britain.
